    I genuinely think shit like this is what promotes antisocial behavior in children. As in clinically antisocial, not just a synonym for introverted.

    Children learn hundreds of new words and new things every week. That’s their entire purpose in life at that age.

    Deliberately lying to them about how basic reality works for extended periods of time is likely what causes the neural short circuits of religion and conservatism.

    This is the paradox of liberalism.

    You have blue MAGA outlets like NPR that spent the last 8 years being “fair” to both sides, telling their audience the antivax fascist psychopaths are just as valid and worthy as the left trying to give people education and healthcare.

    As if conservative views are even worth recognizing.

    Liberalism without a STRONG left wing always ends in fascism, and the liberals are more than happy to join the fascists (see: literally all liberal discourse on Lemmy).

    Guess what the US has spent the past 80 years doing. Real coincidence every time a country leans left, they are overthrown by CIA puppets.

    So now you have liberals in literal tears trying to get their guy elected without even fucking understanding the issues at play. They don’t give a shit.



  • They do, every year, at career fairs across the nations schools. It’s called divesting from the military industrial complex.

    You just pretend not to see it.

    This issue is brought up literally every time the Saudis are mentioned. However, your take is a fresh and interesting one that makes absolutely zero sense.

    What are you doing?

    Oh that’s right, nothing. Okay.

    It’s not even a fucking meme in the tankiest Putin apologist communities to support Saudi Arabia.

    Seriously where are you even getting this from?




  • The problem is for those of us who go out of our way to make women feel more comfortable and safe in male dominated environments, hearing women treat you with the same disdain as a sex pest just makes you stop giving a shit.

    Which again, I’m sure has happened with other “women when x occurs” memes as well.

    Overall very eye opening. I’ll hold my own doors and stop moderating conversations I guess. Just keeping to my own business.

    This entire issue is clearly just another culture war wedge being pushed by right wing think tanks except the target audience absolutely ate this one up as well as the victims.



  • I’m not sure what to tell you other than you’re straight up wrong, mate. I agree that they should be public property 100% but that’s not what the law says, unjust or otherwise.

    UC property is owned by a public trust, which is a private entity, therefore the land is private property.

    Again I’m not saying I like it but unless the law changes, the state may enforce it with their monopoly on violence.

    The question is, what can oppressed people do against a tyrannical government when peaceful protest is met with violence?

    The answer is not allowed.




  • Believe it or not, the Tiananmen Square massacre was part of a power struggle between reformist and authoritarian factions of the CCP.

    Per diplomatic cables from multiple observers, regular army units refused to supply the rural units brought in for the massacre and even threatened to open fire if they didn’t leave.

    You can guess who won the power struggle but the point is, things are in an even worse place in the US and liberals couldn’t give less of a shit while conservative leaders openly call for Kentanamen State Square 2.

    There’s no reformist party or power struggle, it’s literally just the entire US government vs the people.

    It is time for the tree of liberty to be watered.
